Week 6

Number Theory

N

Number theory:

types of numbers

divisibility rules

factors-multiples


example: 10 is divisible by 5 because 2 x 5 = 10


Divisibility Rules

Ending

Sum of the Digits

Last Digits

By 6


Prime Numbers: only two factors ( one and itself)


Week 7

Add both your personal and professional accomplishments.

Homework #5

1) If a number is not divisible by 5, can it be divisible by 10?

No, because it may have a zero at the end.


2) If a number is not divisible by 10, can it be divisible by 5?

Yes, because the number may end in 5.


3) Can two numbers have a GCM?

No, because numbers are infinite.


4) Mary says that her factor tree for 72 begins with 3 and 24 so her prime factors will be different than Tom's because he starts with 8 and 9. What do you say to Mary?

Her method still works because she started with the greatest factor that will just need to be broken down or simplified.


5) The radio station gave away a discount coupon for every 12th and 13th caller. Every 12th caller received a free concert ticket. Which caller was first to get both a coupon and a concert ticket?

LCM: (12,13)

12: 12, 24,36,48,60,72

13:13,26,39,52,65,78

20:20,40,60,80

Answer: 60th caller

Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization

the fingerprint or DNA of every composite number. always the same


GCF and LCF


25: 1, 5, 25

100: 1, 2, 4, 5, 20, 25, 30, 36


List Method

24: 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24

36: 1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,36


Prime Factorization Method

24: 2 x 2 x 2 x3

36: 2 x 2 x 3 x 3


2 x 2 x 3 = 12

Week 8

Fractions

Add the things you like and make you a happy person!

Meanings

example: 3 divided by 5 = 3/5


Models

Ratio

20 students

12 girls

8 boys

example: 12/20 girls to the whole ratio

8/20 boys to a whole ratio


Sets (groups of things)

3/3 = 1 and 4/4 = 1

denominator and numerator are the same meaning its one whole.


Fractional parts are equivalent parts.


Example: 25/100 divided by 5 to both parts = 1/4


Week 9

If there is something that you definitely don't like, add it here!

Homework #7

1) If 1/3 cup of sugar is needed to make two loaves of bread, how many cups of sugar are needed for 3 loaves?

*multiple diagrams divided into 6 equal parts to represent the amount of serving

It will take 2 1/6 of sugar


2) When the LCD is used in adding or subtracting fractions, is the result always a fraction in its simplest form? Explain.


Even though its the LCF, it doesn't mean it's simplified. LCF is still important because you are dealing with smaller numbers and are less likely to make a mistake.


1/2 + 1/6 = 4/6

Homework #6

1) A set of marbles can be divided into equal shares among 2,3,4,5 or 6 children w/ no marbles left over. What is the least number of marbles this set could have?

2: .... (2x30)

3: .... (3x20)

4: .....( 4x15)

5: .....(5x12)

6: .......(6x10)

Answer 60


2) Mary spent 2/3 of her money. She lost 2/3 of the remaining amount then she had $8 left. How much money did she start with?

*diagram split up into 9 equal parts representing the given values


9 x $8 =$72

Addition & Subtraction

1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4


Adding fractions with the same common denominator.


1/2 + 1/6

3/6 + 1/6 = 4/6


Even though its LCF, doesn't mean its simplified.

LCF is important because you are dealing with smaller numbers, less likely to error.


7/6 improper fraction = 1 1/6 which is a mixed number


Multiplication

1/2 of 1/2 is 1/2 x 1/2 which is 1/4

1/2 of 1/4 is 1/2 x 1/4 which is 1/8


The product gets smaller because you are losing a part of a part.


Division

2/3 divided by 4/5

2/3 x 5/4 (the reciprocal)


6 divided by 3

means how many times does 6 go into 3?

Week 10

Add your vision for your future! You can choose to add your short term goal or long term goal!

Problems Solving with Fractions

1) *three diagrams divided into 4 equal parts


3/4 + 3/4 = 1 1/2

2/4 + 6/4 = 8/4 = 2


2) *pie graph divided into 8 equal parts

1/2 of 3/4


3/4 = 6/8 = 3/8


3) *4 stars = 2/7

2 stars = 1/7


14 stars are a whole

45 divided by 37 is 82%


We practiced many in-class problems relating to what percentage of a given amount.

Week 5

Add the institutes where you got your degrees.

Subtraction Algorithm

1) American Standard (last step)


2) European/Mexican (R-L)

8 from 16 is the same as 9 from 17.


3) Reverse Indian (L-R)

Starting from the hundreds and decreasing values if you need to borrow.


4) Left to Right

approaching the problem left to right starting with the hundreds place. this requires you to subtract the problems using full values with zero representing what place.


5) Expanded Notation

breaking down the problem by separating it by hundreds, tens, and ones and adding it by grouping the values.


6) Integer Subtraction

allows you to not borrow numbers but instead write the number as a negative if necessary.


Addition Algorithm

1) American Standard (last step)


2) Partial Sums

using lines to correspond the the place value of the ones, tens, and hundreds.


3) Partial Sums w/ Place Value

similar to partial sums except you are writing in zero values.


4) Left to Right

approaching the problem left to right starting with the hundreds place.


5) Expanded Notation

Division

8/2 : division or fraction bar


quotient, divisor, and dividend


the rinculum


We practiced the Standard Algorithm of division using long division.

Then we practiced a different long division method where it demonstrated place value.

Multiplication (repeated addition)

Array: 3x2 means 3 groups of 2


Identity Property: ax1=a


Zero Property of mult: ax0=0


Commutative Property: axb=bxa


Associative Property: (axb)xc=ax(bxc)


Distributive Property: ax(b+c)=(axb)+(axc)

When I multiply the number by each of the parts

Subtraction

Subtraction (the difference)

meaning:

  1. take away
  2. comparison
  3. missing addend ex: (3+ ?=7)

It's an addition problem, so subtraction would confuse a student as to why you are losing an object.


Comparison doesn't add or subtract


Addition

Addition (put together/join)


1) Identity Property: a+0=a

when I add zero to any number the property doesn't change.


2) Commutative Property (order): a+b=b+a


3) Associative Property (grouping): (a+b)+c=a(b+c)



Week Two

Add information about your family. Usually, the mother's maiden name is written.
Additionally, you can add their age.

221


2. Write the number 12 in each given base:


a) Base 9 =13 9


b) Base 8= 14 8


c) Base 7= 15 7

Number System

The number system we use in our schools and society is the Base-10 system. There is a consistent one-to-ten relationship between the digits of any number in the Base-10 system.


375

3-hundreds

7-tens

5-ones


0.35 is an example of parts of a whole


the decimal represents what percent of the unit applied.


Expanded Notation

375= 300+70+5

=(3x100)+(7x10)+(5x1)

=(3x102)+(7x101)+(5x100)


723=700+20+3

723=(7x100)+(2x10)+(3x1)

723=(7x10^2)+(2x10^1)+(3x10^0)


Base 5: 0,1,2,3,4, 105, 115 , 125 ,135 ,145 ,155

Positive and Negative Numbers

"The Chip Method"


yellow=positive

red=negative


zero pair (+)(-)


Addition


+5 + (-1) = +6

(used the chip method to show a circle with the values)


Subtraction


+5 - +2 =+3

(used the chip method to show a circle with the values)


Multiplication


+3 x +2 = +6

3 groups of positive 2

3 circles of 2


EX: -3 x +2

Since you can't have negative groups you can change the order using the commutative property.


Division

+3 x +2 = +6

+6 divided by +2 = +3 OR +6 divided by 3 = +2
